Bowtie,
I shudder to think what circumstances you and your siblings had to endure. It almost embarrasses me that I feel sorry for myself someimes given your experiences. That you have apparently transcended the abuse and instability of your youth is such a credit to you and the resiliency of children. I am especially impressed that despite your hardships you talk about the failings of the system designed to save you without vitriol, as if you have come to some peace with the terrible cards that you were delt in life. To not let your childhood define yourself is a great accomplishment and should be a source of great personal satisfaction. I hope this is the case.
